In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow welcomes Sarah Curry back to the show for an in-depth look at local government bond elections across Iowa. From small-town school projects to multimillion-dollar city referenda, Sarah explains why these votes matter, how they quietly drive up property taxes, and what taxpayers can do to stay informed.Sarah shares her experience compiling the only statewide reporting of bond elections, describing the labor-intensive process of contacting all 99 county auditors to identify every bond proposal on Iowa's November ballot. With $1.5 billion in new borrowing up for approval, the hosts break down how these long-term debts shape local tax bills for decades.The conversation tackles “mission creep” in local government—where school and city projects expand beyond essential needs into luxury facilities like sports complexes and pools. Chris and Sarah call for better voter engagement, noting that only a fraction of residents participate in decisions that can raise property taxes for 20 years or more.They also discuss the need for stronger transparency rules and better coordination among local governments to prevent overlapping tax increases. The episode ends with practical advice for Iowans: know what's on your ballot, ask questions, and understand that debt equals spending. Informed voters are the first line of defense against runaway local taxation.

A U.S. Senate candidate, current Iowa State Legislator, and two-time Paralympic gold medalist for Team USA, Josh joins Andrew Vontz & Jonathan Kaplan on United States of Sweat presented by Choose the Hard Way. This is the show where politicians and policymakers share stories about fitness, health and the sports they love playing.  Josh has faced adversity his entire life. Born with Spina Bifida after his dad was exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam, he overcame 21 surgeries by the age of 12. Later he was cut from the Team USA wheelchair basketball squad six times.  Relentless in his training and as a top professional wheelchair basketball player, Josh kept coming back.  He finally made the team and went on to represent the U.S. at four Para-Olympics where he won two gold medals. After his basketball career ended with a gold medal in Tokyo in 2021, Josh campaigned to represent his hometown of Council Bluffs in the state legislature.  Competing in a district that Donald Trump won twice, Josh pushed his chair up hills and crawled up stairs to talk to Iowans of all political stripes, eventually winning his first race by six votes.  He was re-elected by a five-point margin at the same time Trump was winning the seat by eight points, not only because of his work ethic but because he's developed a reputation as a common-sense, bipartisan legislator. --------- Jonathan Kaplan is the founder of WRITE CADENCE STRATEGIES, helping individuals and organizations navigate Washington, shape policy and manage reputational risk.

This week, we take a break from our regularly scheduled programming to listen in on the "Medicaid and Hospitals" session from the 2025 Iowa Ideas conference hosted by The Gazette. Iowa hospitals are in a period of "uncertainty" as changes to Medicaid enacted as part of a sweeping tax and spending bill take effect. Is a fund allocating billions to some rural hospital losses easing concerns? What does this mean for the state's rural providers? We'll unpack the changes in Medicaid and what it means for Iowa's hospitals and providers and how those changes might impact you. Iowa Ideas is a free virtual conference put on by The Gazette annually. Together, Iowans explore and share perspectives on the issues impacting the state. Watch replays from the 2025 conference at www.iowaideas.com.This episode was hosted by Gazette Des Moines Bureau Chief Erin Murphy.

In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson dive into the latest ITR Foundation poll, offering fresh insight into how Iowans feel about taxes, spending, education, and the state's political environment. With overwhelming bipartisan support for constitutional limits on raising taxes and capping property tax growth, the poll makes clear that taxpayers want stronger protections — and they want them now.The conversation also takes a serious turn with the shocking story of Des Moines school superintendent Ian Roberts, who was detained by federal agents under a long-standing deportation order. Chris and John walk through the facts of the case, raise questions about how Roberts was ever hired to lead Iowa's largest school district, and criticize the evasive responses of Democratic leaders. For Iowans, the scandal isn't just about immigration — it's about accountability in education and government.From there, the hosts return to the numbers: the poll shows Iowa Republicans remain in a strong position heading into 2026, with a +10 point generic ballot advantage even in what should be a difficult midterm environment for the party in power. Education Savings Accounts continue to gain support as more families see their benefits firsthand, while property tax reform remains a political winner that cuts across party lines.The episode closes with a thoughtful exchange on tariffs and trade, showing how conservative views on economic policy are shifting in the Trump era. Chris and John weigh the populist push for tariffs against Iowa's agricultural reliance on global markets, highlighting both risks and opportunities. It's a conversation that shows how national debates directly impact Iowa families and businesses.
